Cities Rotary Club and sponsored by Kresky Auto Repair and Electric. The event is open to the public with family-friendly fun for all.
There will be 11 games in total priced at $1 each per card for the first ten and $2 for each card in the final blackout game. Prizes include turkeys, kid prizes and for the blackout, $300 in cash!
As always, all proceeds will go toward the Twin Cities Rotary Club’s efforts to support
our local community and fund various projects.

on November 20. Food and drinks will be available for purchase through the Eagles and snacks will be provided. MC’d by Bruce Kimsey and Peter Abbarno to keep the games lively and fun.
Santa’s coming! But who wants to spend an hour waiting in line at the mall to see Santa only to get one polaroid photo of your tired, cranky kids with him? ???? Not when you can get your family’s own PRIVATE session with him instead!
Use this time for your kids to tell Santa what they want for Christmas, read a book, eat cookies and even see Mrs. Clause, all while getting professional photos taken to treasure forever? kids can come dressed in pajamas or holiday outfits!
These Studio Santa minis will take place on Nov. 26 & 27 inside my studio in Winlock, WA! Each 10-minute session will receive 8-10 professionally edited images for $150. Turnaround time is one week from your session date, so still plenty of time to order your Christmas cards! Spots are filling quickly; save yours before they run out!?
Join us on Saturday, December 4 at noon at the Adna Grocery and from 3-6 p.m. at Back Memorial Park where we are celebrating the holidays with music (provided by Adna Schools), a Lion’s Club food drive, visits from Santa and, of course, a tree lighting!
